Hello again,
I want to install some flows manually to the OF switch. I have an overlay
network with a subnet 192.168.3.1/24. The central node with the OVS is the
one with the IP 192.168.3.1 and there are 3 hosts connected directly to the
central. It's more or less like the Openflow tutorial with mininet.

What I want to do, is when the OF switch receives a packet, let's say from
the node 192.168.3.2, to forward it to the nodes for example 192.168.3.4
and 192.168.3.3. I would like to use the IPs of the nodes and not the MAC
addresses or ports. In this kind of topology there is not any real
usefulness, but in the future I am planning to have a more complicated
overlay network with many nodes connected to each other. In the latter case
I will try to direct the packet through a path that I will choose.

Is there any example of how I can do that? Do you think it is better to
alter the code of l2_learning.py or start from the scratch?
